The bass note is the lowest note played (or notated). It is typically notated using a bass clef, which looks similar to:

):

Bass notes are typically below middle-C. The lines on a bass clef stave stand for the notes G2, B2, D3, F3, A3. One line above the bass stave is middle-C (C4). However, double bass and Bass Guitar are notated an octave higher than the actual notes played. Therefore, the notes on the bass clef stave written for bass guitar are actually G1, B2, D2, F2, and A2. One line below the bass stave is E1, which is the lowest note on a standard 4-string double bass or bass guitar. A 5-string bass guitar is capable of playing as low as B0.

Is A bass clef and a treble clef the same?

Clefs do not have 'sounds'. They are merely tools to indicate where on the musical stave notes are to be placed. However, the treble clef 'places' higher notes than the bass clef. If a clef is placed in the middle of the staff, then the notes that follow that clef are of that clef. For example, if the bass clef is placed on the treble staff, the notes that follow it are to be interpreted as "bass clef" notes and played using lower notes on the piano. The opposite is true if the treble clef is placed on the bass staff.
